Chapter 12580
In other words, this is an extremely valuable combat resource for a top-level showdown.
If used too carelessly, it is very likely to dig a hole for oneself.
Lin Yi's eyes flashed.
The other party's decisiveness in making this decision on the spot genuinely surprised him.
No wonder he is a person who can stand at the top of Tianjun!
At the same time, Lin Yi's reaction also surprised Killing Saint.
It's the same principle of forcefully breaking through the Dharma form!
The two methods, though both targeting the same point in time, take effect one after the other.
The final result was that Killing Saint himself was sent flying backward uncontrollably, and Lin Yi took the opportunity to press down again.
However, when Lin Yi's second Ephemeral Flower fell, even though it had already hit its mark, the Killing Saint was not suppressed as expected.
In a completely illogical manner, he forcefully dodged backward, creating a ten-meter distance between himself and others.
Lin Yi's eyelids twitched: "Golden Cicada Escape?"
As one of his most important opponents, he had carefully studied the relevant information about the Killing Saint.
As a top expert known for his assassinations, his most celebrated move is the "Ten Thousand Dragons Burning the Sky" technique he displayed when the racetrack arrived last time.
In addition, there's the signature speed and poisoning.
No one mentioned the Thorn Emperor used this time.
However, this technique of the Golden Cicada Escape has been revealed to others before.
Always able to slip away unnoticed and maintain a safe distance, no matter the circumstances.
This single effect alone can be considered a life-saving trump card.
Just like now, it directly rendered all of Lin Yi's initiative and advantages meaningless.
"Fantastic! Brilliant!"
Zhao Shirong clapped his hands with a smile.
From the moment Lin Yi entered until now, their exchange, though seemingly long, was actually only a matter of a single glance.
The pace of the attack and defense was so fast that even a skilled player wouldn't be able to react in time, let alone make an accurate response.
Lin Yi turned to look at him, his tone somewhat unfriendly.
"What do you mean by this, sir?"
Zhao Shirong laughed and said, "Don't misunderstand, it's not that I have any problem with you. It's just that Killing Saint mentioned to me that your strength is invincible in Tianjun, so I asked him to test it on the spot."
Lin Yi turned to look at the Killing Saint: "Is that so?"
The Killing Saint sneered with a dark face, "You just got lucky, otherwise you would be a dead man by now."
"I've always been lucky."
Lin Yi did not refute, but suddenly smiled at Zhao Shirong with a playful expression: "According to the previous agreement, if I kill him here, can I get into the candidate list?"
Zhao Shirong raised an eyebrow and said in a serious tone, "Strength is the core of my review. If you can demonstrate outstanding performance in this area, you will naturally be given priority consideration."
These words were not only spoken to Lin Yi, but also to the Killing Saint.
Clearly, in his eyes, it didn't matter whether Lin Yi or the Killing Saint survived, since they were just pawns in his hands anyway.
"That's good."
Lin Yi nodded slightly, his opinion of this person rising a bit higher.
As far as he knew, Killing Saint was the key figure who facilitated Zhao Shirong's expulsion back then. Normally, if Zhao Shirong wanted to retaliate, he should have targeted Killing Saint first.
Regardless of the reason, the fact that he could command the Killing Saint to attack him today shows that he is definitely not a kind person.
The Slaughter Saint's lips curled into a smile: "If I kill him today, I hope you will also honor the agreement between us."
Zhao Shirong responded with a smile: "This is official business, and I always treat everyone equally."
After saying that, he leaned back comfortably.
With just a few words, the two most powerful experts in Tianjun were forced into a life-or-death struggle; the taste of power is truly irresistible.
"Sit down and watch."
Zhao Shirong glanced at Xu Longyin, then gestured with his chin towards the seat next to him.
Xu Longyin was flattered and overwhelmed: "Thank you, sir."
Watching Lin Yi and his companion locked in a tense standoff, Zhao Shirong casually asked, "Who do you hope will win between these two?"
Xu Longyin said without hesitation, "Whoever can be of service to you, I hope will be the one to win."
Despite Zhao Shirong's apparent trust in him, he knew very well that his every move these past few days had been under Zhao's close surveillance.
They would immediately notice even the slightest little thing that happened in private.
Therefore, even though he knew Zhao Shirong's arrangements, he didn't dare to give Lin Yi any hints beforehand.
He could only gamble that Lin Yi could handle it.
In this respect, he had more confidence in Lin Yi than anyone else!
Fortunately, Lin Yi did not disappoint him.
"Hehe, don't be fooled by their current life-or-death struggle. Once they actually get the three-zhang Dharma Aspect quota, they might not take me seriously anymore."
Zhao Shirong said casually.
Xu Longyin said solemnly, "With your abilities, it's only a matter of time before you become a master of the Three-Zhang Dharma Aspect."
"Moreover, given your background in our Xuanwu Divine Society, let alone a three-zhang Dharma Aspect expert, even a two-zhang Dharma Aspect expert, or even a higher-level being, would never dare to underestimate you in the slightest."
"Unless they are blind."
Zhao Shirong laughed heartily: "When did you become such a sycophant?"
Xu Longyin bowed respectfully and said, "I am only telling the truth."
Zhao Shirong said with a hint of smugness, "It's still flattery, but at least it wasn't a mistake. If they had any foresight, they would know who the real big shot is."
Not only the Xuanwu Divine Society, but members of all the major divine societies always treat others as a superior when they go out.
It's not hard to understand why a master of the three-zhang (approximately 10 meters) Dharma form would be so subservient to their four-zhang (approximately 10 meters) Dharma form examiner.
After all, they hold the power to decide who gets promoted.
As the two were speaking, Lin Yi and Killing Saint in the arena had already ended their standoff and were attacking each other again.
The Killing Saint's figure flickered, so fast that it was impossible to catch him.
Fourth gear, lightning speed!
Zhao Shirong's eyes flickered: "He's the only one in Tianjun who can pull off the Divine Speed to this level. He's really something."
It is no exaggeration to say that, in terms of mastery of the secret technique of divine speed alone, Killing Saint is arguably the number one person in the entire history of Tianjun.
Before him, the fourth gear of divine speed existed only in theory, and no one had ever mastered it.
With this skill alone, the Killing Saint can easily seize the initiative in any battlefield.
Speed is always the rarest combat attribute.
Surprisingly, the Killing Saint was unable to get close to Lin Yi.
Three full breaths passed, and the two sides maintained their distance.
"Even in Gear Third Speed, it can be this fast?"
Zhao Shirong looked puzzled.
With his keen eyesight, he could naturally tell that Lin Yi was only at the third level of divine speed, and logically he should have been completely overwhelmed by the Killing Saint.
As it turned out, the two sides were evenly matched.
The Killer Saint, who was directly involved, was even more shocked than him.
"how is this possible?"
His Gear Fourth Speed is already unprecedented, so if he can't crush Gear Third Speed in the end, wouldn't he become a joke?
